Impossible to schedule posts: Set date and time post switch automatically to "draft"

Desktop -> Windows -> Progressive app
All my scheduled posts switch to "draft" after I set a date and time for them. If I try to change the date, they go back to "draft"
The only workaround is to create a duplicate of that post and set the date on that duplicate and it apparently worksExcept that I've got a month or so worth of posts scheduled and I need to do that for every one of them.

It happened for instagram, LinkedIn and facebook (I recorded a video), and it seems that it switches to draft on the actual date and time it's supposed to publish. It happens for both of my instagram accounts.
If I try 3 or 4 times to change the status from draft to non draft, it sometimes work, but not always

Just a heads up!
It seems to be working now, I will report back for tomorrow. It doesn't revert back the draft posts created earlier but still waiting to be published, but all posts scheduled from yesterday didn't show the "revert to draft" behaviour.
On the former scheduled posts, I can now just switch the toggle back to scheduled, and I don't have to duplicate them as I did before. A minor inconvenience!

Thanks so much!

Hi @Imaginerie @annaj15710370,

 

Thanks for your patience. I'd like to inform you that this has been resolved, and you need to just remove it from draft state and then let us know if it switches back again.

 

Regards,

Tarun

Something I have noticed too, is that there is no option to "publish now" on those posts (after they switched to draft), but I can do it if I duplicate them first: the option appears on the duplicate.
